Good stay for a family of 6! Large enough space and excellent walking distance next to the beach and Santa Monica Pier. The bathroom was outdated though.

4/10 Fair

Location is great. But everything goes downhill from there; the room had no amenities, is very dated, not clean, the window blinds were ill-fitted and offered little privacy. The bed was a full size (small for 2 people), but was comfortable, at least. We shall not be back.

Great Little Trip for a Family!
Very nice experience. Literally walking distance to the beach and pier. I booked the family room which literally was like a nice little 1 bedroom apartment. It's an older building... do not expect 5 start hotel service. I loved it. Parking was no issue for me as well.

great location
walking distance to the beach, pier and shopping. nice spacious and clean rooms. microwave and coffee maker addition to the rooms would be nice.. they are in lobby, but one in the room would be super convenient. parking is separate at $29/day but worth it, given you can pretty much walk to everywhere else.

Comfy bed but you can literally hear every noise !
Bed was super comfy. Beach was right behind the hotel. Plenty of places to dine at. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Housekeeping in the morning are so freaking loud don’t expect to sleep in. In fact everyone is loud including the people staying at the hotel. If you’re a light sleeper, this hotel isn’t for you!
